Bad dog!

Cujo taps into a lot of those primal feelings with animals and relationships. Stephen King takes this St Bernard and turns it into a killer but he also makes you understand why the dog is acting the way that it is acting. You get to view the world through the lens of the dog's eyes and the through the dog's thoughts as well.

On the other side of the coin is the family that used to the own the dog and of course the Trentons. Both family are sucked into the horror and neither come out the same. This is a classic work of Stephen King's but it is tough to swallow if you are not ready for it.

Unnecessary running

I really liked the customization of weapons and armor and different skill trees. Lots of flexibility usable with different play styles. You can craft different ammo types using materials.

Some of the more basic weapons were fun to use with the hunting missions against animals.

The variety of enemies was also a lot of fun and provided a lot of variety.

Some of the game felt a little hand holdy, but still very fun to explore. Lots of side quests provide a lot of additional game time.

Reputability is good since you can save your cool weapons you have accumulated throughout the game.

Overall, very entertaining game with cool visuals and characters.

Did you buy the unlimited fast travel pack? I was feeling the unnecessary running, until I got that and the summon mount skills.

Movie Rating

Riotously silly computer game adaptation, as magic DNA jollop falls out of the sky and turns animals into giant, aggressive monsters; one of them happens to be genial Dwayne Johnson's pet gorilla, so there's bound to be trouble.

One of those films where everyone is in on the joke - doesn't bear much resemblance to the original game, but works pretty well as a piece of nonsense anyway. Johnson is a reassuring presence in the middle of it all, and the film does a surprisingly good job of catching some of the essence of the classic Japanese monster movies which obviously inspired it. Probably not going to win any of the major Oscars but still good fun while it's in front of you.
